Wang family, at the west end of the village, lost an unlucky little girl. Xu family, at the east end of the village, picked up a girl named Fuman'er.
Everyone in the village said, "Th...
There was a loud knocking on the door, and Huang Si'an rushed out, thinking something had happened.
When I opened the door, I was surprised to see the face I least wanted to see.
"Si'an, why did it take you so long to open the door?" Matchmaker Yao said, her face showing some displeasure.
Actually, it wasn't long from when she knocked on the door to when Huang Si'an opened it. She just felt that she was being pretentious and wanted to say a few words.
“Matchmaker Yao, I’ve already said that I’m not considering marriage for the time being.”
Huang Si'an was at a loss, wondering why this matchmaker Yao had targeted him.

She keeps asking to be a matchmaker for her every few days, and no matter how she refuses, it's no use; she's getting really annoyed.
"You silly girl, don't you know your own age? If you don't consider it now, you can wait until you're old and faded."
Huang Si'an is already seventeen years old this year. In the village, girls her age are either married or engaged.
"Don't say I'm not on your side, old woman. Today, I've brought the person to you."
Matchmaker Yao smiled exaggeratedly and stepped aside, and the person next to her also came over.
“This is from the next village, Aunt Gao, and her son Gao Fu.”
Huang Si'an originally wanted to nod in acknowledgment, but Aunt Gao looked her up and down with an extremely critical eye.
As for Gao Fu, she felt like she was inspecting merchandise because of this mother and son; in short, it made her very uncomfortable.
She didn't even bother to put on a fake smile. "Matchmaker Yao, I'll say it again, I don't need one."
After she finished speaking, she was about to close the door. She felt disgusted if the mother and son looked at her even a couple more times.

"Hey, don't!" Matchmaker Yao reached out to stop her from closing the door.
After sizing her up, Aunt Gao said, "Turn around, let me see what your butt looks like, whether you can have a son."
The Gao family only has this one son, and if he can't have a son, then they absolutely cannot keep him.
If it were an ordinary young girl, she would either blush or feel flustered after being said that, but Huang Si'an wouldn't.
"Aunt Gao, your eyes are smaller than mung beans, how can you see clearly?"
"Oh dear, Si'an, how can you talk like that?" Matchmaker Yao scolded. This brat, she's going to ruin my hard-earned money, isn't she?
She quickly smiled apologetically at Aunt Gao, whose face was pale, "Si'an is such a simple-minded and honest child."
The implication is that this person isn't very smart and is easy to manipulate.
"What are you still blocking the door for? Hurry up and open the door so that Aunt Gao and the others can go in."
Matchmaker Yao kept giving Huang Si'an meaningful glances, hoping that the girl would be more sensible.

Huang Si'an refused, saying, "Impossible. I don't like this person. Let's go."
"You don't like it?" Aunt Gao, who had been repeatedly humiliated, couldn't help but ask.
"You, a mere childless heir, dare to look down on my son? My son is about to take the imperial examination to become a scholar."
While complaining about Huang Si'an, Aunt Gao was also showing off her son.
Gao Fu also raised his face slightly. He quite liked Huang Si'an's face; she was a good match for him.
"Well, I haven't passed the exam yet." These were the words Huang Si'an wanted to say, but they didn't come out of her mouth.
Fu Man'er and Wang Erni had arrived long ago and had been listening from the sidelines. Now they finally got a chance to speak.
“Man’er is right. We haven’t even passed the exam yet, so I don’t know what some people are so smug about.”
Upon seeing the two little girls, Huang Si'an smiled, which stunned Gao Fu.
"What do you know?" Granny Gao roared angrily, "What a country bumpkin! How could someone like that be worthy of my son?"

"Matchmaker Yao, is this what you meant by docile and sensible?"
"Even if someone begged to enter the Gao family, there's absolutely no way they'd do it!"
Grandma Gao is used to being flattered, so if one or two people don't agree with her, she gets really upset.
"Oh dear, no, no..." Matchmaker Yao tried to say something nice to salvage the situation, but Huang Si'an completely blocked her way.
"I'm not good enough for your son. You'd better find someone like you. Someone like you is good enough for your son."
They don't even know what kind of people the mother and son are, yet they still come out to nitpick.
Grandma Gao was so angry that her face turned pale. She grabbed her son and left, but Gao Fu was still reluctant to leave, and kept looking back at Huang Si'an.
Oh dear, the money that was almost in their hands just flew away like that. They couldn't reason with Aunt Gao, so Matchmaker Yao had no choice but to talk to Huang Si'an.
“What they said is right. You have no descendants, no maternal family, no relatives, and you're all alone. If someone from a well-off family takes a liking to you, you should be grateful.”
"And another thing, if you don't even like this one, what kind of person would you like? You might like them, but would they even like you?"

"I think you're incredibly arrogant. Others can't pass the imperial examination, but you insist on becoming one."
“There’s only one person in our village who passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, the third son of the Xu family. You’re not hoping that he’ll marry you, are you?”
“I think it’s a good idea.” A voice interrupted Granny Yao’s incessant chatter.
"You're really something..." Granny Yao thought Huang Si'an was saying this and was about to curse when she realized that it was Fu Man'er who said it.
Huang Si'an's expression was unreadable, but Granny Yao was amused.
"What do kids know? I'm very concerned about your uncle's marriage. The girl will be coming over soon, and your uncle will definitely be very happy. Let's finalize the marriage today."
Granny Yao and Aunt Yao are sisters, and the two sisters had already discussed arranging a marriage between their cousin and Xu Genshu.
"Don't let the good stuff go to outsiders; the money from this matchmaking should be earned by Matchmaker Yao."
"Xu Genshu is getting engaged?" Huang Si'an's grip on the door frame tightened subconsciously.
"It'll be here soon, it'll be here soon. I'm not talking to you anymore. Do you think this old woman has plenty of time?"

"Think it over carefully, don't waste your time like this. I'm leaving." (Qianqian Xiaoshan)
After finishing her speech, Matchmaker Yao walked away with a swaying gait; she was the kind of person who never did anything in vain.
Huang Si'an is good-looking and many people will be interested in her. Moreover, she is a childless woman, so once she marries into her husband's family, she will definitely be devoted to them.
With that in mind, Matchmaker Yao started thinking about which other families were suitable for Huang Si'an. She had to get her hands on this money.
The Huang family were outsiders in the village. Huang's father worked as a teacher in the village school in his early years, while Huang's mother did some embroidery work.
The family lived a fairly good life in the village, but a few years ago, Huang's mother contracted an incurable disease and passed away after a period of struggle.
The deeply loving father was greatly shocked and resigned from his job as a teacher at the school to recuperate at home.
But he didn't last long and eventually died in despair, leaving behind only his daughter, Huang Si'an.
From then on, Huang Si'an became known as the childless one. They had no relatives in the village to begin with, and after the two old people passed away, Huang Si'an's personality changed a lot.
She was no longer the quiet and gentle girl she used to be; instead, she was argumentative and prone to shouting. As an orphan, she had to be assertive to avoid being taken advantage of.

"Sister Si'an." Fu Man'er gently tugged at Huang Si'an's hem.
Her face looked terrible; she was staring ahead, lost in thought.
"Hmm?" After calling out twice, Huang Si'an finally came to her senses, but she looked listless.
"Sister Si'an, what's wrong?" Fu Man'er asked with concern.
"It's nothing." Huang Si'an shook his head, trying to shake off what Yao the matchmaker had just said from his mind.
A forced smile appeared on her face, but in Fu Man'er's eyes, it looked worse than crying.
"Are you picking so many flowers to make a wreath?" Huang Si'an looked down at the flowers in the two people's hands.
"Yes, Sister Si'an, we want to learn how to make the flower wreath you made last time." Wang Erni didn't notice anything wrong at all.
They even held up the flowers in their hands with great enthusiasm. Huang Si'an led them into the yard, found some small stools, and began to teach them how to make flower wreaths.
Soon, she noticed that Fu Man'er was absent-minded. "Man'er, what are you thinking about?"

The little girl unconsciously twisted and turned the flowers in her hand, breaking many of them.
Fu Man'er looked at Huang Si'an and suddenly let out a long sigh, looking like a little adult.
"What's going on in your little head?" Huang Si'an pulled the chair closer to her, almost as if he wanted to hold her head in his hands and study it carefully.
Fu Man'er hesitated, looking extremely conflicted, which greatly piqued Huang Si'an's curiosity.
"Man'er, what happened? Tell your sister."
